Getting the other warehouse up to snuff landscaping wise 

What happens here

A New Holland compact wheel loader is employed to transport and spread the large riprap stones across a designated drainage easement. The operator efficiently maneuvers the loader to scoop up a full bucket of stones from the main pile, drives to the required location, and then systematically dumps and spreads the stones. This creates a robust and permeable layer that is essential for managing water flow and preventing erosion in the drainage area. The video shows both the operator's view from inside the cab and external perspectives of the machine distributing the heavy stones.

Goal: Establish a functional drainage system using riprap stones.
